Countdown to Spring/Summer Idea Book ~9

Welcome back to my Countdown to the new Spring/Summer Idea Book. Today I am featuring the snip-it of the fundamentals paper pack Z1939. This is an awesome paper pack which features 2 sheets of 10 different papers all shown below. The colors are wonderful in the basic color pallet, with one side having a glossy resist and the other is white. For the layout I used the bamboo paper which features hearts.

With Valentine’s Day just around the corner I wanted to create a valentine layout. Since I have a boy I wanted to not go over board with the pinks and reds so I used Bamboo as my base. But what is valentines with out Blush, Hollyhock and Ruby? I will be offering a limited number of this layout as a kit for $12, so be sure to let me know if you are interested.

The heart pattern paper is a mask using an overlay I cut using my Silhouette and using the Ruby reinker mixed with water in my spray pen Z1380. The hearts and title are also cut using my Silhouette. I found the You are Foxy cut file on the Spring Holiday Card Cricut cartridge which they were allowing you to use through the Cricut Craft Room last week for free.

Here is a close up of the detail. You can see the Bamboo fundamental paper, isn’t it awesome? I also use the Ruby Chevron ribbon Z1846 and Red Shimmer Trim Z1848. I used the scalloped boarder punch Z1851 to give it the scallop look.
